Hey fellow animators. I've been animating for a while now and I realize that I only use a couple of mel scripts/plug-ins in my animation workflow. I use a few different ones for rigging/modeling/texturing/etc... but almost none in animation.

Are there any scripts that have made your animation life easier that you would like to share? The two I use are mel scripts for maya and they are:

-pose2shelf.mel
-pmframecounter.mel

I use 3DS Max, and the script that I've just started using is "pFlow Baker". This script has saved my life many times. It bakes out particles to helpers (dummy objects) or to boxes that can be manipulated and linked to like normal objects.

Other than that, I tend to roll my own when the need arises.
